More than a funny guy. Couldnt really understand him the first go, so if anyone finds error in my transcript, let me know, lol. Reporter: Many people want a revolution, but Im asking you what it would be like? Russell Brand: Well I think what it wont be like is a huge disparity between rich and poor, where 300 Americans have the same amount of wealth as the 85 million poorest Americans, where there is an exploited and undeserved underclass that are being continually ignored, where welfare is slashed while Cameron & Osborne go to court to defend the rights of bankers to continue receiving their bonuses. We can no longer have erroneous, duplicitous systems held in place, unless its for the service . . . only systems that serve that planet and serve the population of the planet can be allowed to survive, not ones that serve elites, be they political or corporate elites. The time is now. These movements are already occurring, its happening everywhere. Were at a time when communication is instantaneous and there are communities all over the world. The occupy movement made a difference even if only in that it introduced to the popular public lexicon the idea of the 1% versus the 99%. People for the first time in a generation are aware of massive, corporate and economic exploitation. These things are not nonsense and these subjects are not being addressed. As long as people are empowered with information. If people are unified, if people have like a common understanding, are prepared to look at what we share, what unifies us instead of what separates us, then the people are invincible. This is the irrefutable truth of the elitist pyramid structures, is when the people are awake, it is impossible to maintain. This is why we need a police force, no disrespect officer, and a domestic army to control populations, because when people decide this is over now, then it is over now. We may analyze the semantics consistently for mythology and theology of words like love, God, they find that the common theme, John, is union, that we just want to be connected to something higher. That could be another person, that could be God, that could be a relationship with nature, that could even be a relationship with West Ham United. I think the important thing is to have as the central tenet of your being love, compassion, and tolerance. Everyone knows that. I think that we need to see politics as the implementation of spiritual principles. Of oneness, togetherness, tolerance of one another, and making sure that people are taken care of. Someone said, I think it might be from Uganda, that a cave could have been in darkness for 10,000 years but as soon as the light is put on, as soon as the match is struck, the light is there. So the light is coming. Theres going to be a revolution. Its totally going to happen. I aint got a flicker of doubt, this is the end. This is time to wake up.
